Forza X Rumor Debunked By Turn 10 Studio Head, Confirmed Fake

Rumor about a new Forza game has been debunked.

Bigpappy2612d ago

Actually they said the logo was fake.

dumahim2611d ago

It is Microsoft. They seem to have a problem with numbering things in order.

@duma

MS skipped Win9, because they said they didn't want to confuse the customer with the Win95-98 lines, because apparently consumers are confused with numbers on an OS that came out 20 odd years ago.

This rumor may be fake, but assuming it's true, maybe they just want to bring Forza up to the same number as Windows, and then start releasing updates for it for the long term....not unlike they do for Windows now apparently. Thus turning it into a service, more than a product. Wouldn't be a bad thing depending on how they handled it.

XBOX
XBOX360 "It is called such because it provides 360 degrees of entertainment: games, movies, music, internet access and community, as well as features like high definition image, simplicity of use and surround sound capability."
XBOX ONE "all in ONE console"
XBOX ONE X(leaked name, allegedly) could mean its a cross between pc/xbox1 since pc textures will be directly ported into scorpio and does backwards and forwards compatibility

There keeping Forza 7 close to there chest it seems this year. Cant wait for the reveal.

Gazondaily2612d ago

Imagine Forza running on the BEAST!

notachance2612d ago

just play FH3 on a gaming PC, no need to imagine anything

Goldby2612d ago

it already has, on a top of the line PC. which is better than the scorpio

KingKionic 2612d ago

It will be godly Septic....so so godly on the scorpio.

Gazondaily2612d ago

Was playing horizon 3 this morning on xbox...so gorgeous!

Bigpappy2611d ago

I don't get the PC reference. FH3 =/= Forza7. Forza7 NOT on PC, gaming or otherwise.

I do imagine that it will be beastly at 4K 60fps on the Scorpio Monster when it does release.

Should be nice, expensive gaming PC built for 4K with a 4K monitor or 4K TV like I will use with my Monster.

XanderZane2611d ago

It's going to be amazing. 4K native 60fps with HDR support. Damn, I still need a 4K HDR TV.

Can't wait to play this on the PC!!! Forza is the best racer currently!

FITgamer2612d ago (Edited 2612d ago )

Disagree completely. AC IMO is the best SIM racer to date. Untouched as far as racing mechanics go.

FH 3 however is great. Probably the best arcade racer I've ever played.

Movefasta19932612d ago

Idk about PC and I was using a controller, but I tried ac on PS4 and the driving physics were trash.i felt like I was gliding on the track, like there was 0 weight and the collision physics ....dear god. I picked up dirt rally after and that imo is a great racing game.

FITgamer2612d ago

@Movefasta1993 I can't speak for consoles, but on PC, AC is definitely a better SIM than FM 6. Physics are better, the cars look better, more track detail, better lighting, and car engines sound better. It also just has more a SIM feel to it, where is FM feels more like a SimCade. FM is more forgiving, which would appeal more to the casual crowd.

I agree with you on Dirt Rally It's also amazing.

TheColbertinator2611d ago

@movefasta

Please dont play Assetto Corsa on console. Its just meant for PC

MorpheusX2611d ago (Edited 2611d ago )

what does AC stand for?

Nevermind...•Assetto Corsa

You did not forget about AC. Be honest.

ShadowKnight2611d ago

I did but I never said it was better than Forza. They're both great games

XbladeTeddy2612d ago

I miss Project Gotham Racing.

Paytaa2612d ago

I played A LOT of PGR2. Might be my favorite racing game ever next to Forza 1 and 3.

jonivtec2611d ago

The thrid one release along the xbox 360 was for me the best racing game ever.It wasn't a sim in term of physic but in term of immersion it best anything i have ever play.The engine sound was just mind blowing to.

Einhander19712612d ago

There's a surprise another forza, let's hope Microsoft have more up there sleeve at E3 for Scorpio than this fake or not.

Yohshida2611d ago

Don't worry, they will.

Another Forza, the best racing franchise.

Bigpappy2611d ago

Forza7 will be mind blowing beautiful in 4K 60fps HDR. People have been saying Scorpio needs a 1st party game to showcase it's power... this a that game.

MRMagoo1232611d ago (Edited 2611d ago )

racing games don't show off power , they are not very demanding compared to most other game genres. They are basically just graphic showcases because it's easy to get them looking real.

Yohshida2611d ago

With 24 cars on screen, running at 4k with 60 FPS showcases the power.

And that's a big reason why I've shelved the game already. I'm doing this FOMO crap with them anymore.

Tacoboto151d ago

I wonder if Turn 10's spent so many years building systems (rebooting Motorsport, upgrading their engine, assisting Playground on Horizon, retooling the upgraded engine to support an RPG like Fable) that they've forgotten how to build a fun gameplay loop around those systems.

To reference DF's Forza vs GT video, ignoring the aesthetics and visuals, there is a huge philosophical difference in how they approach the fundamentals of getting the player into a vehicle and onto a track, so big it's almost like Turn 10 just doesn't "get it" anymore.
